Hi,

Please can someone help, I now have about 7 registered users and 5 of them have told me that they hade to turn OFF Firewall protections because they couldn't register.

Once they did this and got confirmation email they put protection back ON and all is fine?..

I don't want people having to turn protection OFF just to register, how can I stop this and let ANYONE no matter what they are using register?

Please answer someone.

See my faq Here, Here and Here.

This should help them to enable referer for your site without disabling the firewall.

There is a way to make XOOPS not check the referrer. I cant remember where it is, but its somewhere in the forums.

excellent, thanks for your help guys & gals(if any)...

Seems I either turn it OFF and have great security issues as I can't trust ALL of my users or have it on and loose out on some potential users!

I thought XOOPS creator(s) would have made it as standard that ALL users on the Internet with or without firewall protection could register!
